PURPOSE: the Research pages are intended to be a continuous update of your research progress and highlights. You results & brief analysis will go here but not the details of how you did it (e.g. the methods). Think of it as a sort of highlights of results page so that Dr. B and the mentors can quickly check on your progress.

2 Weeks Blocks layout

In general your progress will be assessed every 2 weeks (lab hours, research progress, wikispaces updates).
However, it is best to get in the habit of updating this continuously - as you get a reslt in lab - upload it to your research page. Then clean it up the day it is due.
26-Aug Wednesday - 6-Sep Sunday (1.5 wks)
7-Sep Monday - 20-SepSunday
21-SepMonday - 4-Oct Sunday
5-Oct Monday - 18-OctSunday
19-OctMonday - 1-Nov Sunday
2-Nov Monday - 15-Nov Sunday
16-Nov Monday - 29-Nov Sunday
30-Nov Monday - 6-Dec Sunday

Guidelines for posting on Research Pages:

• Put a line and 'Week 1&2', 'Week 3&4', etc.
  • put a horizontal line after each section so you can tell where each begins or ends (there is a menu item in GDrive for this)
• Post in reverse chronological order (newest stuff on top - so we don't have to scroll down so much)
• Make your images a decent size
• Include captions or text describing the image or images
• Don't post links to files-
  • Post images by uploading them (keep files in your Google Docs)
  • Use the 'snipping' tool if necessary to get a small screen shot of what you want to show - but often you want to save the raw data image in your GDrive

Your WikiPage should have images: gels (well annotated) and other images of research like graphs and tables of date (not just text!)

• examples of things to include:
  • Transformation plates
  • nanodrop images
  • RE digest gel
  • PCR gel images
  • yields from Midiprep
  • yields from protein purification
  • tables of absorbance values, bar graphs of enzyme activity
  • vitrual screening results tables (e.g. Top 10 results)
  • PyMol images of top 1 or 2 docked ligands
  • etc.
• Captions: you should have enough information in the caption to let the reader (Dr. B) understand what it is.
• Brief analysis of the result (e.g. 1-2 sentences of why it did or didn't work, next steps, etc.).
• Next steps: brief statement about what your next step is

Instructions for Creating Your Research Page:

1. On VDS Google Drive:

• Under your student folder (make one if not done already), create a Google Doc and name it: UTEID_FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage
  • note this one has the UTEID - but the one below does not need it.....
  • e.g. XYZ42_DianeC_ResearchPage
• Share the document with Dr. B by putting in the Research Pages folder as well as your own folder:
  • Go back to your student folder, select the document, and hit SHIFT+Z
  • An "Add To" selection will pop up. Select "Research Pages" and hit "Add"

2. On the VDS WikiSpaces

• Login to WikiSpaces and create a page (the option is on the left hand navigation bar)
• Name the page: FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage2015 (e.g. DianeC_ResearchPage2015)
• Go to your new WikiSpaces page and hit "Edit"
• At the top of the editing page, click widget and select "Other HTML"
• Copy and paste this code to the text box: <iframe width='1000' height='900' frameborder='0' src='REPLACE_THIS'></iframe>
• Replace ONLY the red text with the shareable link of the Google Docs you created in step 1
  
  
  • - make sure anyone with the link can view
• Hit 'Save' to save the code. 'Save' the draft of WikiSpaces page. Your Google Docs should appear on your WikiSpaces Page.

3. Edit this page:

• Below these instructions, add your WikiSpaces page title to the list (FirstNameLastInitial_ResearchPage2015)
• Highlight your page title and hit "Link"
• Under "Page Name," search for your WikiSpaces page. Select and hit "Add Link"
• Save the edits to the page, and make sure your link works!
